Dental implants are small titanium posts that act as artificial tooth roots. Once placed into the jawbone, they fuse naturally with the bone, creating a stable foundation for a crown, bridge, or denture. Implants are widely considered the best tooth replacement option because they restore both appearance and function, and they prevent the bone loss that often follows tooth loss.
What is the Dental Implants procedure like?
The process begins with a consultation and imaging to determine your bone health and treatment plan. If needed, bone grafting may be recommended to strengthen the jaw before placement. During the procedure, the implant post is surgically placed into the jaw under local anesthesia, with sedation available for comfort. Over the next few months, the implant fuses with the bone. Once healed, a custom crown, bridge, or denture is attached, completing your new smile.
Dental implants replace one or more missing teeth. They are used when a tooth has been lost to decay, injury, or gum disease. Implants can also support bridges or dentures for patients missing several teeth. Because they integrate with the jawbone, they help preserve facial structure and prevent the sunken look that can occur with long-term tooth loss.
Dental implants are valued for their stability, natural appearance, and long-term success. They look and feel like real teeth, allowing you to eat and speak without worry. Unlike removable dentures, implants stay in place permanently. They also preserve jawbone health by stimulating bone, which prevents shrinkage over time. With proper care, implants can last decades, making them one of the most reliable restorative treatments available.
Most healthy adults with missing teeth are candidates for implants. Patients should have sufficient bone density in the jaw, although bone grafting can often help when support is limited. Certain medical conditions, such as uncontrolled diabetes or heavy smoking, may affect healing. At The Dental Team, we’ll review your health and goals to see if implants are right for you.
Following aftercare instructions and maintaining good oral hygiene help ensure the best results.
After implant placement, patients may experience mild swelling or soreness for a few days, which can be managed with medication and rest. Most return to normal activities quickly, though the implant itself requires several months to fully fuse with the bone.
Dental implants restore the look and function of natural teeth. Patients notice improved chewing, clearer speech, and renewed confidence in their smile. The results are long-lasting, and with proper care (including brushing, flossing, and regular dental visits) implants can last a lifetime.
The procedure is done with anesthesia, and most patients report only mild soreness afterward, similar to a tooth extraction.
